Temetka: The words 'price differential' don't even APPLY between the eee and the x300. One of them is $300 min, the other is somewhere around $3,000 min. Ten times the price for nowhere near ten times the stats. Other than price they can't really compare, though I can say that the speed of the...

Well, I've had my EEE for about a week now and have finally gotten around to installing my extra 2gb of RAM and eeeXubuntu. It. Is. Awesome. Applications are snappy, the screen isn't bad(most of the pages I've been to automatically adjust for the low res[including 68kmla, woo!]) and I don't...

You know, I find myself being extremely surprised that the word "RARE!" appears nowhere in that auction...

And the software collection on the new server is growing... Add what you have if it's small.

Pick up both, they don't take up much space even if you can't use them.

Indeed, I've had a lot of fun with those on my C64 driving wheel(Hummer conversion)

Firstly: Get a second 3.5" drive. It will make your life SO much easier, and plenty of forum members will sell you one. Then, get the disk images for GS/OS from Apple's site: http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html Convert on an older Mac and use one floppy drive to install...

How about make a disk with the G3...

Looks like it's made out of Legos.

EPIC FAIL.

Windows 95 came on something like 25 floppies. I've never tried to install it, but I do have a copy on floppy disks.

Quadraman: My 486 has a turbo switch.

Well, I finally got around to ordering the processor replacement for my crappy Dell computer which died. I got a mobo replacement and it turned out that it fried the proc. So I (two months later) got a $15 2.4ghz proc off Ebay (BIN) and it all works now. Stuck a spare HD in it and installed...

I personally like traditional mice usually, since I play a few computer games, but other than that, my input device of choice is the pressure-sensitive pen tablet, since it's precise and it gives me writing practice.

The problem about just scaling processor speed up on stuff like this is that most of the old computers were dependent on the speed of the processor being consistent.. I'm not sure if the Apple II was but it wouldn't be surprising to me. Plus, a lot of the applications (read: games) were...

I found a really nice non-switched one that can display up to 1280 x 960. No brand or anything.

I picked up 2 older PC laptops today from Freecycle. One of them's a 486 DX2, 50mhz, with 24mb RAM, and a 1gb hard drive, but a broken screen. Works fine with an external HD, and that one's going to a friend who wants it to play Betrayal At Krondor. The other one is a Thinkpad 765L. It's got...

Lucky all y'all. I have 70KB down/15KB up.

Nice, looks like a nice machine.. Even without the extra RAM it seems like it'd be a nice comp for travel.
